October 13th, Milan, Italy– today SITAEL and COVEN consortium, composed of 15 vending companies (it is the second largest operator in Italy at an aggregate level), signed a contract for an initial deployment of 1,000 vending machines equipped with MatiPay payment system, which guarantees a frictionless and complete user experience thanks to the combination of an immediate connection between the vending machine and the mobile App.

Coven APP, powered by MatiPay, will bring several features such as social dynamics, loyalty programs, and customized promotions. Moreover, Coven app will be equipped with a multi-wallet that automatically recognizes the machine and its vending company associated for the credit handling.

“A dream is about to come true” claimed Alessandro Fontana , PR in COVEN “by allowing the use of a single App throughout Italy and the consumption on automatic vending machines of different managers, while maintaining a single profile.”

“We are really excited for this project” claimed Matteo Pertosa, Head of Industrial & IoT Division in SITAEL “that brings our technology to handle a complex system concerning both payment and telemetry for different operators at the same time while providing a secure, smooth and transparent end-user experience.”
